Twilight Circus was the dub-influenced project of multi-instrumentalist/producer Ryan Moore, a longstanding member of the Legendary Pink Dots and the Tear Garden. Born and raised in Vancouver, BC, Moore began playing bass at the age of 13 after his first exposure to Bob Marley's classic Natty Dread; his fascination with dub continued in the years to follow despite working as a studio musician with Nettwerk Records and collaborating with industrial acts like Skinny Puppy, Download and Single Gun Theory. Joining the Legendary Pink Dots in 1991, two years later Moore relocated to the Netherlands, forming Twilight Circus in 1995 and issuing In Dub Vol. 1 on his own M Records label. Subsequent efforts include 1996's Other Worlds of Dub, 1997's Bin Shaker Dub and 1999's Horsie.
